Star Wars - Original Editions? Where Are They?

[Nubius]

Regardless of your stance on piracy, I personally find it frustrating that Lucas not only has refused to ever re-release the *original* editions of Star Wars again, but he has yet to release any digital versions of the film at all.

Most frustrating of all, is if you do a search for Star Wars (Eps. 4-6), you will find plenty of copies, but they are all the special edition. Why is this? Those have only been released on VHS as well. Anyone know why it is impossible (6 months searching now), to find the ORIGINAL editions on Kazaa or elsewhere?

Does anyone know where to find a copy?

why would you want them ? lucas wanted the movies to be like the specail edition from the beginning but technology wasnt there. so watch your watching in how it origanally was meant to be. thats why he wont release them
